An Improved Method For Spectroscopic Quality Classification, Elizabeth G. Mayer
An Improved Method For Spectroscopic Quality Classification, Elizabeth G. Mayer
Mathematics & Statistics ETDs
Spectral quality classification is a vital step in data cleaning before the
analysis of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) data can be done. This
analysis compares five methods of quality classification; three of these are
legacy methods, Maudsley et al. (2006), Zhang et al. (2018), and
Bustillo et al. (2020), and two newly created methods that used a random forests
classifier (RFC) to inform their classifications. We found that the random forest
classifier was the most accurate at predicting spectra quality (balanced
accuracy for RF of 88% vs legacy of 70%, 72%, or 72%). A
Random-Forests-Informed Filtering method (RFIFM) for quality …

In the outer edges of the solar system exist two regions: the Kuiper belt and Oort cloud. These two regions have a high amount of icy bodies (comets) orbiting the Sun. Comets located within the Oort cloud and Kuiper belt contain an ancient codex to the solar systems contents, before the formation of our solar system. Presented are near-infrared, high-resolution (λ/Δλ ~40000) data obtained from the immersion-grating echelle spectrograph iSHELL at the 3m NASA Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF) in Maunakea, Hawaii of the Oort cloud comet C/2015 ER61 (PANSTARRS). Observations took place on April 15 and 17 in 2017 while …
